[drums beating]

[in Pidgin] Do you remember me? It's me.

The original sweet boy Q. Most confirmed bachelor.

The most sort after in Nigeria.

Alright open your eyes, open your eyes.

Sweetness overload. And I'm somebody's child.

The last time you saw me,

I was a security man who got lucky.

Because I got gifted money. But then, my dear,

many things have changed since then.

[lively music playing]

Naturally, I'm a risktaker.

When opportunity presents itself, I grab it.

This trait is why I have so many aliases.

[in Yoruba] Q for Quame, second to Steve Jobs.

[in Yoruba] Same class as Jeff Bezos.

[in Pidgin] As a born entrepreneur by nature.

Mike Zuckerberg and I are one and the same.

[Quam] Great! Great! Great!

I want to fix it over here. Understood?

See how good I look. My God.

[Quam] The cash I made sports betting,

I invested in forex and doubled it.

Afterward, I doubled that by bitcoin trading.

That is how I earned the name, Q for Quame.

Aka king of "cryptocurrensli".

Sorry, king of "clipslocur"... ah [sighs]

My dear, forget about the pronunciation. There's money in my account.

Vanessa!

Vanessa!

Mr. Quam, good evening.

Evening Vanessa, how do you do?

I'm doing fine sir.

Have you arranged the drinks on my table?

Er...the...the drinks are arranged on that table sir.

[Quam chuckles]

Vanessa, you know that's not my table.

Mr. Quam I know. But, um, please just manage this table tonight.

One Champagne on the house for you.

[in Yoruba] Did you hear what she said? She said one Champagne.

[in Yoruba] You're funny Vanessa. Are you insulting me?

No.

You offered me Champagne.

Do I look like somebody who's thirsty?

Ah! No!

No.

Just imagine that.

[Vanessa] Mr. Quam, two Champagnes.

[in Yoruba] She said two Champagnes.

Vanessa, why don't you take this and buy yourself two Champagnes. Okay? Thank you.

-[faltering] Eh... Mr. Quam. -[Quam in Yoruba] Baby let's go.

[Quam] Sincere apologies to everybody tonight.

I don't mean to interrupt your evening.

[Quam] It appears there has been a mix up with the table allocation.

[Quam] As you may or may not observe,

This is my spot.

So I'm gonna need you to vacate the premises with immediate effect.

To avoid conflict tonight.

[laughs]

Your table?

Yeah. That's what I said.

-Emeka. -[Emeka] Eh?

[woman] Does he have his name on it?

[in Igbo] Let me check, maybe it's here.

[laughs]

[Emeka] His name is not under.

-[woman] Check the chairs. -No name here.

-[in Yoruba] It's funny? -[Emeka] Come,

Mr Man, where's your name? You stressing me. [in Igbo] your name's not here.

Okay. I see your case is a case of adolescence and youthful exuberant.

-You're the idiot. -Have a seat.

Have a seat. Let me offer you a charity cost.

Okay. I'm gonna give you a whopping sum

of one million naira to vacate the premises,

and I cover the cost of your drinks.

[crowd laughing]

Can you see this man?

He's offering one million naira for the table and to pay for our drinks.

Okay, this is your queen mother, right?

It's not sufficient?

Um, why don't we make that five million naira and

I cover the cost of your drinks tonight. Drinks on Quame.

[women laughing]

-[Quams] How does that sound? -Er, very funny.

Are you insane? Five million for a table?

I have the money.

Who are you? Hush puppi in disguise?

He's a yahoo boy. Yahoo yahoo, that's how they do.

What is a "hush puppi"?

Listen to me madam, I suggest you conduct your research before you approach me.

The name's Q. Sweet boy Q.

That is Quame Olarewaju Omole.

Alias, Q001. Get to know me.

[in Yoruba] I'm royalty. Are you getting me? Deal or no deal? Last chance.

[Quam] Five million naira and I cover the cost of your drinks tonight.

Come.

[laughs] Okay.

I like you. But no.

However, you may join my party.

[Quam] Okay, okay.

[chuckles]

You know something?

I like your bravery. Understood?

I like courage. How much is the money?

I reckon five million isn't sufficient for you. I'll pay any amount.

Let me be your benefactor.

Ah! Sorry. Toyin.

You. Just you.

Your friend would be fine, and if she's not, she knows better than to complain.

At best, it would cost you a designer bag or two.

Okay, okay.

Walk. [in Yoruba] Don't worry.

Please, send me your account number okay. [in Yoruba] Don't worry.

[in Yoruba] I like you.

Let me spoil you.

I have plans for you.

-Here. -Okay.

Help me bring that.

"Canopy" [in Yoruba] how?

Amuse-bouche.

What do you mean amoub...

Um, it releases dopamines when you taste them. Like little teaspoons.

-Dopamine? -[woman] Yes.

[in Yoruba] Those are hard drugs.

Hm. Interesting.

Ndlea.

Is it... Is it safe?

[intriguing music plays]

Wow!

Snoop doggy dog.

[Quam in Yoruba] Thank you.

My eye is turning me already, I don't know.

["Popping" by Show Dem Camp playing]

Ah!

Ah, look at somebody's child.

I want to feel that again.

-Patience. We've got al-- -[phone rings]

I have to get that.

[ringing]

Ignore it.

I can't, it's a bat phone.

[in Yoruba] what is a bat phone? Oh my God.

You're ready to deal?

Really?

What do you mean it has to be tonight?

Are you sure?

[sighs] You said it's ten times the money. So what can a girl do?

Okay.

It's been fun. I've got to go.

Ah-ah. Go to where? Not so fast.

Babe, where are you going to?

Oh, to close a deal. The idiots messed...

mixed up the timing. They thought it was, um, 1:00 pm Beijing time,

when it was supposed to be 1:00 pm Nigerian time. So I've got to go.

Wait. Just hold on. You can't just leave.

What work do you do?

Uh... international investments.

I've been chasing a deal, for over two years in Gabon.

Oh, okay, okay. Ten times the money right?

God, you are nuts. You were listening in on my conversation?

I mean it's loud.

You know, I'm actually an investor.

And sincerely speaking, I want to invest my capital in your ventures.

[playful music plays]

[woman] It's actually one billion naira. A slot.

I've got to go.

You know I did not expect to hear that figure, but...

It's not like it's too much for me, I spend that daily anyways.

It's... [chuckles] It's not much but...

Ah. For the purpose of this particular investment.

Why don't I start with fif-- 100 million?

You are cute. I think you should sit this one out.

These type of deals are not for just anybody. Okay?

[coughs] Ah. Ah.

Madam, permit me to reintroduce myself because that's an insult to my character.

Do you know who I am?

Ah.

My name is Qwame Olarewaju Omole.

Alias Q001.

They call me Qwame for short or rich homie Quam. Do you know why?

I'm a world-famous entrepreneur and business associate.

Technology genius and bitcoin expert.

Very notorious and notable all over the world.

You don't call me just anybody. Come on.

Ah-ah.

Sweetheart.

No, I... I'm gonna take offense to that.

Ah-ah. You need to apologize. Come on.

How would you underestimate me like that. There's nothing I cannot do.

Okay then.

[suspenseful chords]

If you have 750 million naira,

then just maybe I can get you in.

-[scoffs] -And that's because I like you.

You see 750 is still a little much, let's do 300.

Six fifty.

Four hundred.

Five fifty.

Four fifty.

Five hundred. Final offer.

-I...I... -[suspenseful music playing]

[victorious chords]

We have a deal?

Come with me.

[dramatic music playing]

Sorry, hold on. Let me put on my trousers

[dramatic music playing]

Where is this place?

[woman] Avatar investment. Very specialized firm.

[woman] Quite suspicious. They're very cross I brought you here.

[man] I just made 150 million naira now, you won't believe it.

[dramatic music plays]

Ozzy, there are too many stairs.

[woman] This is impossible. Gabon is full.

Apparently, he's a billionaire.

[woman] Si? Good for you.

Gabon is

-full. -Surely you can make space.

Why would I do that?

Because I have 500 million naira.

Five hundred.

[suspenseful chords]

[Quam laughs]

Ozzy Ozzy Ozzy. Every time you come here, you bring me problems.

The minimum is one billion.

One billion?

You say it like it's chicken change.

Ozzy, this isn't what we discussed.

Ozzy said it's 500 million.

Ozzy is wrong.

One billion. If you don't have it, I cannot help you.

Okay. I wanted to introduce myself earlier on but,

I got distracted. The name is Q.

You can call me young Quam. I'm a born entrepreneur by nature.

Popularly known, generally renowned.

In fact, my reputation is my curriculum vitae.

And you'll need me in this company. Gabon investment is my future.

Gabon investment is my forte.

Gabon investment is my destiny.

I promise you, you shall not regret it. Think about it ma.

[dramatic music continues]

[in Yoruba] Say something.

[sighs]

Malta. Okay?

Say I squeeze you in,

still impossible, why? Because you're gonna have to pay now.

Ah-ah. No prob-- I'll pay immediately. Right now, come on.

How are you gonna do this?

All my money is in bitcoin. Just give me the account details. I'll make a transfer.

Five hundred million, yes?

The full 500 million?

you're gonna pay now?

Miss, you're talking too much. Ah-ah.

Just give me your account details. You'll get an alert now.

I'm being serious. Come on.

[dramatic music playing]

Ozzy,

So what next, I'm hyped.

You can call your girls, and I'm sure they'll hook you up.

Ah! Ozzy Ozzy. Ah.

Don...

You don't have to leave me like this.

Mm.

[in Yoruba] Now I'm aroused.

[in Yoruba] Why is everywhere purple?

[hisses]

Ugh. I'm feeling cold.

[phone ringing]

[groans]

[woman] Hello.

[exhales] Who's this? What do you need?

[woman] Hello sir, my name is Favour from Bitcoin Currency Trading Company.

Are you doing me a favor by calling me

so early in the morning like this.

[woman] I'm sorry sir, it's 4:00 p.m.

How can you tell me it's...

Ah.

[sighs] Okay. What do you want?

I'm calling to confirm sir, you withdrew 500 million from your account yesterday.

What!

Five... Sorry I didn't hear what you said. Please come again.

Five hundred million was liquidated from your bitcoin account

into a Gabon trust company account.

Did you make this transaction sir?

Of course I'm not the one. How can I make--

Actually. Actually, I'm the one. What's the issue?

[woman] Um, yes sir. We're going to have to downgrade your account.

[woman] You need a balance of at least five--

[phone clatters]

[loud sigh]

Ozzy.

[man laughing]

[Quam in Yoruba] Rotimi what is funny, I'm telling you something and you're laughing.

-[Quam] It's not funny. I'm not a novice. -[Rotimi] Sorry sorry.

You'll invest a certain amount of capital,

and within one per annum, you'll recoup ten times your investment capital.

Wait, let me get this straight.

Er... a woman you say is...

-[Quam] Sparkling. No first time. -Sparkling. You had never met her before?

And she's able to convince you

to invest in a deal that would give you ten times your money in one year?

-Yes. -[laughs]

[continous laughter]

[in Yoruba] Rotimi what is funny?

I'm telling you... it's not what you think.

[in Yoruba] Those in marketing do the same thing.

Anyway, she didn't approach me.

I approached her. She was on my table and we started talking.

Damn! She is good.

Damn good. [chuckles]

What are you-- [in Yoruba] what are you even saying?

My guy, you were scammed.

[chuckles]

[hisses]

[clicks tongue]

Scammed how?

Okay. Here, let me break it down to you.

You know my family right?

-Eh, yeah. -And you know what we do?

-Oil... -Oil blocks. We own oil blocks.

And even for us, making ten times the money in a year [in Yoruba] is impossible.

Think about it. It's not feasible.

I mean, it's still possible I could stumble on an oil...

on a golden product and then

ten times the money within the space of one year.

Rotimi my money is intact.

No, it's not... at all. How much did you dash her?

[Rotimi] How like... like. I mean [chuckles]

[mockingly] How much did you invest?

[in pidgin] You actually gave it out for free but let's just say you invested.

The amount of my investment is 500.

Five hundred thousand? 500 thousand is what we're discussing here? [hisses]

Babe come here. I'll dash her 500 thousand what kind of rubbish is this.

Would you get out of this place! Who called you!

[in Yoruba] See how she looks. Look at her.

[in Yoruba] She looks like a wayward girl. Like she

uses hard drugs.

What is she doing here? Who asked for your

-company? -Hey [in Pidgin] I called... 500 thousand?

Rotimi 500 million! That's how much they collected from me.

Okay. Alright. I understand now. But it's not that bad. 500 million is...

Yeah, it's not bad. You can get that back in like one month. It's okay.

It's not bad. It's not bad. Rotimi, look at my account balance.

2.5 million. 2.5 million, that is how much is remaining.

I cleared out my account for this investment purpose Rotimi.

And you're saying it's not bad. It's not that bad. Oh, God.

Okay. I'm... I'm sorry bro.

I don't need your sorry. Don't be sorry.

My money's okay. It's just an investment. I just need to wait.

At least a duration of one year.

I will collect ten times my money.

Let me guess.

Um, she said it was a limited-time offer right? You had to do it urgently.

[tense chords]

[in Pidgin] Rotimi, where have you brought me to?

The office of the person who can help you.

There are armed policemen everywhere. who is this person?

The director...

[Rotimi] the head of uh, the department of security--

-Cybercrime unit Rotimi. -Wow.

[woman] What part of top-secret don't you get?

Pleasure to meet you ma.

[woman] I should have you arrested right now.

And how do you think my mom would feel about that, or your mom for that matter?

[woman] Oh really? I wouldn't be too sure about that if I was you.

Your mother's been complaining about you breaking off your last engagement.

She might think jail time would do you good.

[Rotimi] Low blow coz. Low blow, huh.

-[chuckles] -Yeah. Whatever.

So.

Who is this?

[cousin] And why is he here?

[clicks tongue] Quam.

Thank you. Firstly I really appreciate this opportunity.

It all started on Wednesday.

Basically, I found myself in the clubhouse,

and I was just having fun.

Enjoying myself with some of my friends.

So, when I explained my predicament to Rotimi, he said

there's somebody that could be of assistance. So that's why we're here.

-The "Borrow Borrow Boys" -The who?

The "Borrow Borrow Boys" or Triple B.

Notorious fraudsters.

They've allegedly stolen over one hundred million dollars. [chuckles]

But, how do you know it's them?

They're said to be led by a tall beautiful woman.

[tense music playing]

[cousin] Very few people have met her.

Ah-ah! [in Yoruba] I know this woman! This is the woman that swindled me.

Are you sure?

[in Yoruba] Rotimi I wouldn't lie to you. I know this face any damn day.

Madam, this is Ozzy.

-Hardened criminal-- -No-no. Her name is not Ozzy. It's--

-I promise that's the name she told me. -Ozzy?

So she's going by Ozzy now.

Madam this woman defrauded me of 500 million naira.

Okay and you're saying that she's the one who scammed you directly?

I promise you, I know this woman's face anywhere.

Why would she do that?

Who are you?

Me?

My name is Qwam Olarewaju Omole. Alias Q00.

People call me young Quam or Quame for short.

No...

-I'm just a simple guy. -No. This doesn't make any sense.

-She wouldn't risk coming out for anyone. -Madam,

please I... I beg you.

Please I don't know any boy eh, bo...bororo--

Borrow Borrow Boys.

I don't know any "Borrow Borrow Boys." What I'm certain of is somebody

conspired to defraud me,

of the amount of 500 million naira.

Five hundred million naira! Please I... I need my money.

Yes of course. You'll get your money eventually.

Good! It's gonna work out.

Eventually when?

-Two, three years tops. -[Rotimi] Great.

Ah!

-[in Yoruba] Rotimi I feel dizzy. -[Rotimi] Are you okay?

Oh God. Oh God. Madam, please, please.

I don't have two to three years. Please I beg you. I'm in severe pain, I need your

-assistance. -Look. Quam

-right? -I'm nervous, I'm nervous.

-Calm down. -It is what it is, unfortunately. But...

I'm sure that there would be a large reward and...

But I can't promise anything.

[Rotimi] You know. There you have it.

[Hadiza] Borrow Borrow Boys.

I've been wanting to catch them for such a long time. Finally, I've got them.

Two, three years. Two, three years Rotimi,

-two, three years. My life is over. -[Hadiza] Let me call my guys

and you can give them a statement in detail. Okay?

[Hadiza] Okay?

[dial tone]

Actually, that would not be necessary.

I have an appointment and I'm running late.

Tomorrow I'll give you a call.

No, it won't take long. You know, just 20 minutes.

Don't bother, I don't want to stress you. I really appreciate your effort.

-Thank you so much. -Okay, so,

tomorrow then. Okay? Rotimi, bring him back tomorrow.

Around noon.

Uh, thanks coz.

And um, call your mother.

Because she called my mother,

who called me. Something about uh, you needing to get married?

Go home.

[Rotimi] Quam wait!

Why are you ignoring my cousin? What kind of disrespect is that?

Your cousin?

Your cousin Rotimi. [in Yoruba] Did you listen to what she said?

Two to three years.

[hisses]

Quam, really?

I'm trying to help you, and this is how you treat me?

[in Yoruba] Rotimi I don't have two to three years. I cannot wait.

I need my money now. Rotimi...

[in Yoruba] Ah! I'm stressed out honestly. You can't understand.

Do you know my background? Do you know where I come from?

Rotimi I was once a security guard. I came up from the ghetto.

[in Yoruba] I'm a ghetto soldier.

[in Yoruba] But you can't understand because you're a trust-fund baby.

[in Yoruba] Honestly. You were born with a silver spoon.

Rotimi, listen to me, I really appreciate your effort. You're a true brother.

But let me handle myself from here.

[in Yoruba] Thanks a lot. I'll call you.

[dramatic beats playing]

-[guard] Sir! -Hey!

Sir!

[guard] Sir!

Ozzy!

Ozzy!

[tense music]

-[dramatic music plays] -Ozzy!

Sir, let's go. Sir, let's go.

[panting] Let's go let's go.

[bangs door]

[in Pidgin] Brother let's go, let's go.

[Quam] Hello.

[Qam] Uh, I think you're Dada?

[Dada] Who... who told you I am--

Are you not the building manager?

Who... Who told you that? Who told you I'm the

-manager? -Your security guard.

Who is there? Which of them told you that?

[Dada] Who... Just go home. You're fired!

Bastard. Yes?

I'm looking for this company. Avatar investment.

Um, as you can see, you're aware that that place, it has been empty.

You saw for yourself. The space is empty.

-Wo...wo...woo-- -Okay. How do you explain this?

Please what do you want me to explain?

I found this flyer on...on the floor.

This is that company the defrauded me.

Avatar investment is a sham. How do you explain this?

-How am I sure this isn't your paper? -[Quam] Oh God.

Tell me, how am I sure you didn't print this to cause trouble?

[Dada] You explain to me.

How much are they paying you?

What?

[Quam] How much did they pay you?

Sorry, you know what? I can be of no assistance to you. Can you excuse me?

Gentleman,

You need to produce the camera footages of this company.

Or else you're going to be in serious trouble,

I promise you. Produce the camera footages, for investigative purposes.

You want to see what?

Camera footages.

Um. Last week we had an electrical fire.

It burnt all the cameras. What we have there is charcoal.

If you want to see the charcoal, I'll take you there.

Why did the fire not burn you?

Why didn't it burn you? Because you're a bastard!

You're a criminal! I'm gonna destroy this company!

-[Dada] Hey who's there? -I'm gonna destroy this office!

That's how you people would let me get stabbed!

[in Yoruba] You're a thief and a greedy person!

-I'm a thief? -I'll do more than stab you!

-You'll see. -I'll scatter this office!

Oh, now you arrive.

-Fools! -You're a criminal!

He has been threatening me and

-you were nowhere to be found. -You'll suffer for 600 hundred years!

[Dada] At least I'll be alive for 600 years.

You'll not even reach 75. You'll soon die, idiot.

[Quam] Hey! Leave me! I didn't ask for your assistance.

I can walk myself.

Leave me! Nonsense.

[Quam] Useless vigilante.

Because you have uniforms you think you have the power.

[hisses] Ah-ah.

[in Yoruba] I know this man.

[Quam] Are you not the one from the clubhouse?

-Who? -You were with Ozzy.

[Quam] Where is Ozzy?

Wait! Oh.

[Quam] Wait...

[fast paced music]

Hey! Come back here!

Where's my money?

I said where's my money?

Which money?

Do you know who I am? You're trying me.

Do you know me too?

Listen to me and listen well.

You don't mess with me. I'll get upset with you.

Okay? Don't mess with me!

You cannot steal my money and get away scot-free.

Listen to me and listen well.

Nothing.

I believe you think this is a joke right? Do you know me?

Do you know who I am?

I'm sweet boy Q, [in Yoruba] second to Steve Jobs.

[in Yoruba] Younger brother to Mike Zuckerberg. A peer to Jeff Bezos.

They call me ghetto soldier. Do you know why?

Because I am a hired killer. I would end your life!

Eh! Calm down brother, please.

I'm just an errand boy, calm down.

Where's my money?

I have it here.

[panting]

[Quam yells]

[in Yoruba] That hurt!

[fastpaced music playing]

Hey! Hey!

[in Yoruba] See how he's running like a thief. Oh God, oh God.

[man] Okay. Yes.

[man in Pidgin] What are you doing?!

[in Pidgin] What are you doing! Don't move!

Wait!

[crowd singing] ♪ Come and see oh Come and see ♪

[crowd yelling]

[Emeka] A... Are you mad?

-[Quam] Why are you running? -Why are you chasing me?

Come here. Come here!

-What is it? -Where is Ozzy?

Who is Ozzy?

Oh okay. You think I'm illiterate right?

Do you think I don't recall?

The woman you were with at the clubhouse?

What woman? I don't know what you're talking about.

Ah-ah. Now you can't remember?

When you get to the police station, you'll explain yourself.

-Then let's go to the police station! -Let's go.

-There's one down here. I'm not scared. -Come back here!

[Quam in Pidgin] Wait wait!

Let's go!

[Quam] Wait!

A woman defrauded me of 500 million naira. You were with her in the clubhouse.

Five hundred million naira. I need to recover this money.

I promise you if I'm able to recover the money, I'll give you one million.

One million dollars or what?

I see you want to insult me.

Even normal whistleblowing at the Federal government level,

is ten percent. So if my calculation is right,

five hundred million is 50 million.

Fifty million! out of 500. How much would I left!

It's whistleblowing.

[in Pidgin] Have you lost your mind?

Okay, because I like you. I'll collect 49.5 million.

Alright, I promise you five million Naira. Okay?

On recovering the money, I'll give you another ten million Naira. Additional--

And why should I believe you?

You look like a yahoo yahoo boy. Hold on, are you a yahoo boy?

Here have this. Just take it.

What is that nonsense?

This is what you call a limited-edition golden product.

Encrusted with a diamond. Patek Philippe. Have it.

Wait. Wait! You talk too much, give me one minute.

-Have it, check it. -Wait!

[Quam] Twenty thousand dollars.

If you convert it to naira, that's about five million naira.

Alright, wait.

[playful music plays]

It's original. What do you want?

What is the meaning of all this?

Who's there? Why does he keep barging in here?

[Dada] Anybody can just come in. Who's there?

[Dada] Oh! I already fired this other person.

-[Dada] Who's there? -[dial tone]

Eh.

Don't... don't bother coming. I'm okay, I'm okay.

[Quam claps]

Congratulation Mr. Dada. You have completed your task.

Don't worry. Don't come, I'm okay.

[Quam laughs]

Sorry. You're one of them?

Of course. We needed to confirm that you're not somebody that would

blow our cover or compromise us before we can give you your settlement..

But ah, that was really convincing.

-Um actually-- -Very very convincing.

I'm into acting in my spare time. I'm also into music.

That's a story for another day anyway.

I knew it. Especially after I saw your dreadlocks.

I knew you were a talented person.

Like Rastafarians

-[exclaim] -[smacks thigh]

Wow! You people really cleaned out that idiot.

Oh of course. [in pidgin] Add this.

You people cleaned out that idiot.

[Dada] Are you seeing this?

[Dada] Ehh!

Don't worry, everything is complete. It's complete.

Just call our boss, to let her know I've completed the task.

You're right. You're right.

Okay, let me call me her.

Wow.

[Dada] I'm your man. I'm your man.

-I'm your man. -We're in this together.

-It's ringing. -It's ringing?

-Yes. Eh! Stop... -[dramatic music plays]

Wa... Hold him! Anybody just hold him.

[Dada] Hello, who is at the entrance?

[door shuts]

[Ozzy] Dada, what's up? Did you get the money?

Of course, I got the money. As a matter of fact, it's in my hand currently.

[Ozzy] Who is this?

[Ozzy] You're not that---

Why don't you come off it. You stupid scandalous prostitute.

You're going to open your ears and you're going to listen to me now.

You will transfer that money back to my account with immediate effect!

[Ozzy] There's no need to be rude Mr. Omole.

[Ozzy] Goodbye.

Hello! Hello!

[phone shatters]

[sighs]

[tense music playing]

[Quam in Yoruba] Why don't you even go to the office?

[in Igbo] I swear to God, they only call me when they need me.

Who calls you? Is it Ozzy?

No no. One woman called Eme. Eme.

-Eme? -Yes.

I think I've met her before.

Do you know anything about her?

[in Igbo] I swear to God, I'll tell you if I knew. I'm just an errand boy.

Is there anything in your big head?

No, the only thing I know is what I've been told, nothing else.

[in Yoruba] Are you dimwitted?

No, I don't play draughts, just ludo.

Ah! My God.

[in Igbo] I know these people.

Which people?

The printers, I know them.

-The people who printed this? -Yes.

-You have the address? -"Anyi"

-You know the printer? -"Anyi"

What do you mean by "anyi"?

Yeah... I know the fly... the people.

Let's go there. Let's go right now. Tell me the direction.

How much can I sell this ring? If I want to sell it?

I said tell me the direction!

Okay. Let's go, sorry.

[horn blaring]

[Quam] Are you the one that printed this flyer?

[chuckles]

[in Pidgin] Brother, you've seen the store name and you're still asking.

Please, help me write down the address you delivered it to.

Very important. I need it.

So?

Calm down, I'll compensate you.

[in Yoruba] It's Quame talking. I'll give you 50 thousand.

Fifty what? [in Pidgin] Is that a joke?

[in Pidgin] Do I look like that's what I'm worth?

[in Pidgin] Just 50 thousand? I'm not amused.

[in Pidgin] What is the meaning of that?

[in Yoruba] So 50 thousand is too small? Okay.

I'll give you 100 thousand.

Really.

[Quam] In fact, 200 thousand.

-[excited laugh] -[Quam] Young Quam is here now.

[in Pidgin] Brother, it seems like you really want this address.

[in Pidgin] Since you want it urgently. Just give me one million quickly.

Listen to me and listen well. In case your hearing is faulty.

Let me explain something to you. I can easily go to the police station now.

It would cost me what? 50 thousand naira.

I would come back here with an armed police officer, and they would beat

you mercilessly and you would still give me the information.

Since that's what you want, let's go.

[in Pidgin] Brother! Can't I make jokes again?

[in Pidgin] Why are you so heated? Calm down.

[in Pidgin] Uh... Uh, no problem.

Um, okay. Give me the 200k.

You have lost your chance. 100 thousand non-negotiable.

[in Pidgin] You just said you wanted to give me 200k!

That was before you got greedy. If you continue like this, I'll reduce it to 50.

-Or five thousand. -Look.

[in Pidgin] You better not provoke me.

[in Pidgin] Is that a joke? Do I look like I'm worth just five thousand?

You messed up. You messed up.

Two thousand even.

Write the address.

[in Pidgin] I'll write it down.

[action music plays]

Maybe we should go.

-Go to where? [hisses] -Leave this place.

My money is inside there and you want to leave.

Are you sure your money is here? What if the printer gave us the wrong address.

See now.

[in Pidgin] Madam! So glad you're back. It's going to be a good day for us.

[guard] I believe in you ma. Welcome ma.

No. This is it. Look at her.

Look at the bloody Karashika.

[clicks tongue, sighs]

[suspenseful music]

Hey, hey. Gentlemen let us calm down. I'm actually here on an appointment.

What are you looking for?

Who are you looking for?

-Pull him. -Hey! Do...

[Quam] Do... do you know who I am?

[man yells]

[suspenseful music]

[Quam] Hey! Hey, come back here. I'm talking to you!

You're a thief. I told you I would get you.

[shrieking]

Where's my money?

Hello, Mr. Omole it's good to see you.

Listen to me, you fraudulent criminal, I don't have time for pleasantries.

Sincerely speaking, when I'm done with you,

you would regret that we ever met

-in the first place. -Unfortunately, you have bigger problems.

[rifle cocks]

[tense music playing]

I'm not a part of this. I don't know...

[vocalizing]

[Quam] You cannot harass me, officer.

[Quam] Because I know my right, I didn't commit any offense.

This is how they harrassed Mandela.

And Fela Anikulapo. This is how they were harrassed.

[Quam] I'm a descendant of Saro-Wiwa. In fact, Femi Falana would defend me.

Shut your mouth, you're making things worse. What I wrong with you?

Officer please I don't know my rights. I don't have rights.

Can we make a phone call, please?

You are terrorists.

Why would we give terrorists a phone call?

We are not terrorists, we are not terrorists.

-Jesus! -[in Pidgin] Are you Boko haram?

No. God forbid, never.

My name is Chukwuemeka Chineme Odumegu, I can't be Boko haram.

[in Pidgin] Why do you have a goatee like Boko?

No, it's fashion, not Boko.

[in Pidgin] Stand well let me have a good look. Where are you going?

-[in Pidgin] Are you his protector? -I don't know him.

It's actually a false accusation. I'm a born again--

[in Pidgin] So why do you look familiar?

Do you mean me?

[in Pidgin] I've seen your face on TV.

-[Quam] I'm not the one. -Akpan!

-I know you. -[in Pidgin] He looks familiar.

[in Pidgin] Aren't you Quam, the crypto king?

[in Pidgin] It's you now!

[inmate] Boss boss!

-[inmates hailing] -Relax! Relax.

[inmate] Officer!

-[in Pidgin] Officer good job! -it's him.

[in Pidgin] Quam's in my cell!

[in Pidgin] Quam's in my cell!

Guy.

[in Pidgin] Why are you acting like a woman. Relax.

[inmate in Pidgin] Don't be upset I hit you earlier.

[in Pidgin] We're in the jungle now.

[in Pidgin] I was upset but it's all good.

Really?

[in Pidgin] You're not at home anymore. Relax.

Officer, [in Igbo] don't you let these people brush their teeth?

[officer laughing]

[Quam] Honestly don't let anybody tell you can't succeed.

Because I did.

I was just a common security guard.

Until I met my lifesaver.

Three hundred million naira. Just like that. My life changed forever.

Is that so?

[in Pidgin] So that's how it happened?

[in Pidgin] When I heard the story before, I didn't believe it.

Three hundred million naira, just like that.

My brother, if it's not a blessing I don't know what to call it.

Ah.

Wow. Guy,

[in Pidgin] You must've really pleased that woman.

[in Pidgin] For her to give you 300 million naira.

I'm telling you.

You should've seen how it happened, because I was there.

When he was on top... sorry.

Emeka, Let's talk privately.

You need to be quiet. It's your fault we're here.

[distressed sigh]

Emeka, look at my life.

Look at my life.

I don't even understand how I got here. Look at my life.

Do you...

This is the end for me.

Prison destroys people's lives. How can... [sighs]

Emeka, do you know what it is for somebody

to build himself from the ground up.

I started from the ground up. Eme... I'm from the ghetto.

When I said I was a ghetto soldier, I was not joking.

[in Yoruba] I was born in Mushin. I started from scratch.

[in Pidgin] My mother doesn't even know I'm here.

[in Yoruba] My mom would cry, she'll have a mental breakdown.

My mother raised me alone, as a single mom.

You know...

I have not told anybody this before. But,

when my father died,

my father's brothers chased

my mother and us away.

And they said that my mother killed my father.

And then put us on the street, we didn't have anywhere to sleep.

On hearing you now---

[officer] Omole! You have a visitor.

-[whispering] You'll be fine. -Thank you.

Hadiza I just want you to keep an open mind okay?

Let's just hear his side of the story.

Hear his side of... Are you kidding me Rotimi?

Hear his side of the story... How do you know this person?

That's not the point okay.

So our lives... we got our lives together and what is he doing?

He has all this money and what? He,

-he gave it all away? -As somebody--

To some woman over some scam deal?

You don't know that.

-We're trying to get-- -Are you kidding me!

It's okay.

[door slams]

Bro, what's up?

Quam, what the hell did you do?

Rotimi I swear, I promise you on God,

I didn't do anything.

You didn't... You didn't do anything?!

If you didn't do anything,

then why is senator Goriola accusing you of terrorism and attempted murder?

Senator... who is senator Goriola?

I don't know. I promise you I don't know any senator Goriola.

[Rotimi] You don't know him? Huh?

Yes him.

This guy. Ah. It was an accident really.

[Rotimi] What kind of stupid accident is that?

[Quam] I know it sounds odd. Okay, let me explain.

It was a party and it was crowded, there were too many people.

So I was chasing Ozzy, and then--

Wait wait.

You were chasing Ozzy?

You were chasing Ozzy? I told you to let me handle it!

Listen, you told me I have to wait, I don't know, maybe two to three years.

Even after this period of time, there's no guarantee that I'll get my money.

What did you expect me to do? I need this money now.

Congratulations. You just screwed yourself.

Enjoy the next two years in jail.

Two... Ah! Oh, God.

-I don't know how you get me involved. -[Quam in yoruba] I'm in trouble.

You're putting my career in jeopardy. You're putting our

-family in jeopardy. -You know people.

-In this kind of shit. -Calm down.

What can we do? There's gotta be something This is Nigeria. We can do something.

Two years for what?

Listen to me.

You're to be held without bail, because it's a terrorism charge.

I can prove I'm innocent, please I'm not a terrorist.

-I...I swear -[Hadiza] Oh. I'm sure.

I'm sure you'll be proven innocent.

[Hadiza] After you spend two years in jail.

[mosquitoes buzzing]

[knocking]

[officer] Omole, Odumegu. You have a visitor.

[Quams] You!

How dare you! How dare you step a foot in here.

Do you honestly think, that you'll get out alive if you kill me?

Well at least you'll be dead and trust me I'll be excited.

You destroyed my life!

Emeka can you see this nonsense?

[suspenseful chords]

[dramatic music playing]

You better calm down bro. You could pass out in a minute.

-[groaning] -You better calm down bro.

-I thought we bonded in prison. -Shut the

-fuck up and breathe. -Emeka.

You've really hurt me.

[coughing]

You wouldn't know it if you looked at him.

Emeka used to be a member of the US special forces.

[Ozzy] He loved gambling a bit too much,

and ended up owing a whole lot of bad people a whole lot of money.

[Ozzy] That kind of person is a great tool to have. Won't you agree?

[panicked] How does that concern me?

You're in here for a terrorism charge, that's a lot to do with you.

[tense music]

You cannot prove that. I'm innocent!

You're a bitch! You're a fucking bitch!

Yes.

Yes, Mr. Omole. I am.

But I'm also the bitch that owns you.

You don't own shit!

You don't own jack shit!

Eme. Eme!

Yes? Yes Ozzy?

What's his charge?

Um, Quam Omole is a terrorist mastermind,

that tried to kill a... a senator.

Ouch.

That's an interrogation that comes with a lot of torture.

I didn't do it--

What do you want from me? What do you want from me?

Do you want to get out of prison before the year 2023?

How will you get me out?

That's easy.

I'd ask the senator to drop the charges. The terrorism charges.

Ugh.

You set me up.

Ozzy... Ozzy why? What did I do to you?

You're going to help me steal five billion naira from Audere holdings.

Little bird tells me, it's your ex-girlfriend that owns it.

Take us to your house.

Listen bro, I had to do what I had to do.

You know, I owed a lot of people a lot of money and

I had to do what Ozzy wanted. I mean you would've done the same thing.

Don't give me that nonsense. I don't want to hear it.

I don't want to hear it. [in Yoruba] What kind of rubbish are you saying?

He is doing the same thing.

He's stealing from his girlfriend.

[in Pidgin] Are you mad? Who is this?

[in Yoruba] Do you know you're talking to Quame.

You fuck you.

Not even in your dreams.

[in Pidgin] Who is this? Who brought her here? Who is she?

As far as you're concerned, I am god.

Period.

I need to talk to Ozzy. Where is Ozzy!

She's at um, where's Ozzy again? None of your business.

[Quam] I can't understand anything you are saying, because

It's impossible.

What is impossible?

Okay, if I'm understanding you correctly, you're suggesting

that I steal five billion?

The way you say the amount like it's 500 naira.

You want me to steal five billion from Audere.

In other to do this I have to insert a flash drive in Toun's laptop right?

This flash drive. Once you do that, we'll handle the rest.

[Quam] Wow.

Actually, that's... that's a genius idea.

I have to commend you for that.

[flash drive clatters]

What manner of nonsense. Somebody I have not seen

in how many years? You want me to-- How do you want me to get hold of her?

My friend would you calm down and be quiet.

Didn't you use to bang her? [in Pidgin] Isn't she the billionaire shop girl?

[Eme] How hard is it to use that to get what you want from her?

-Oh [clicks tongue] -[Emeka] I've got an idea.

Who asked you?

[Eme] What is your idea?

It's really a good one trust me.

What is it?

Throw her a party.

You're very stupid.

You're not balanced in the head.

Why exactly would she agree to that?

Listen, Toun just got engaged right?

-She's engaged? -[Emeka] Yes.

[Emeka] To this guy called Joseph Fineboy?

Fine boy? That's his name? Really?

It's common among Port Harcourt people.

Mhm, yes, their names can be very strange.

Hmm.

But what does Toun's engagement have to do with what we're saying?

[in Yoruba] What is always wrong with this man?

The party you're gonna throw for her is going to be an engagement party.

[Quam] Are--

Are you okay?

Sense. Are you in possession of it? Sometimes you act like you're very stupid.

Why would Toun bring her laptop to an engagement party for god sake? Dummy.

It is gonna work, listen bro. Just hear me out alright.

All you gotta do is, you throw her the engagement party,

Right? She's gonna love it, she's gonna like it and think you're a good guy.

Then you guys keep talking and chatting. She's gonna

then invite you to her house.

And that is when you're gonna have access to her laptop.

And we've got it. It's that simple.

[Quam] Mm-hm? Just like that?

Maybe you have some sense after all.

[groovy music plays]

Work on the model, but I also want the setup to pop. Exactly.

That's the center. Hold on.

[groovy music]

So I want people to see the dress when they look at the picture.

Quam! [laughs] Hi!

Wow! It's good to see you.

Good to see you too.

[chuckles]

[in Yoruba] And congratulations on your engagement.

Thank you. And congratulations to you too.

On what?

You're a successful man like you always wanted to be.

Eh, Mr. Bitcoin king. You think I've not been seeing you?

Thank you. I mean, it's the Lord's doing, what can I say.

Toun... can we talk in private?

We haven't seen each other in a few years now,

and you're here. Quam are you in trouble?

Trouble, why would you say that?

Because when you show up like this, it's...

What's up?

Actually,

I don't know how to say this without sounding weird but,

I want to throw you an engagement party.

What? Why?

Sincerely, I'm happy for you.

I'm sincerely and genuinely happy for you. And...

everything I am today, I owe it to you.

And you thought the best way to repay me was

to throw me an engagement party?

[Eme] What do you mean she said no?

She said she didn't want me to throw her a party, should I have forced her?

Was how... how did you tell her?

[sarcastically] I said it in french.

See--

How else is he supposed to say it? It's not his fault.

No. It's his fault because this was our only way in.

[sighs]

-[Eme] Fuck. -[phone ringing]

[phone ringing]

Hello Rotimi.

[in Pidgin] I'm out of prison.

[in Pidgin] I'm at home now.

[Quam] But I'm in the middle of something. [in Yoruba] Let me call you back.

Okay, alright.

Was that Rotimi Davies?

And who's Rotimi Davies?

The oil billionaire.

Never heard of him.

[Eme] Er, he's all over Quam's Instagram.

[in Pidgin] You're following me on instagram?

[Eme] Yes of course. All the better to scam you with.

Thanks to the lavish display you have on there.

What's your business?

[doorbell rings]

Are you expecting somebody?

[doorbell rings]

[Quam] Hey bro, what's up?

[Rotimi] Hey Quame.

Um, we need to... we need to talk.

Okay.

[tense silence]

And who are they?

Uh...

These are my friends.

Well, your friends need to either leave or go upstairs.

Now.

[retreating footsteps]

Why are you are out of prison?

Ah, I can go back if you...if you... if...

Your case is no longer pending Quam.

What deal did you cut?

[raising voice] What deal did you cut Quam?

Actually...

Quam, answer me right now.

Please answer her.

I contacted one of my connects and they helped me beg the senator.

And they released me.

Your connect? What connect?

Ah. I have connections now.

You have connections. Which connection?

Somebody high up.

Quam if you don't answer me right now, I'm going to have you arrested.

Hadiza!

[Hadiza] Please, stay out of this.

[Rotimi] No, I'm not going to stay out of it this time, okay?

You asked me to bring you here, I brought you here.

He said he did a deal, he's out of jail. That's a good thing right?

Let's end this.

I'm going to be watching you, don't forget that.

All the ladies do. [chuckles]

[scoffs, hisses]

I'll see you later.

Stay out of trouble.

Thank you. Thanks.

Who was that?

Department of security chief or something like that.

You told them about us?

Sometime in the past, yeah.

Ozzy is not going to like this.

Ozzy is not going to like the fact that you set the police on her.

They didn't find out from me. When I got to her office

she had Ozzy's picture.

She said she's investigating her and a Borrow Borrow group or so.

Well, Ozzy would be happy to know that she's on the government radar. However...

If you are cut talking to them again...

No, I will not talk to - I promise will not talk to them again.

I promise.

[Eme] Tell him what you know.

We found a way for you to get to Toun.

[Toun] So at Audere group, we're very dedicated to women's health.

One of the areas we've decided to concentrate on is breast cancer.

Apart from the fact that it's a menace in the society,

It holds very very sentimental value to us.

My grandmother, rest her soul. Ms. Aduke Odumosu,

died a few years ago. We lost her to breast cancer, that's one of the reasons I

[Toun] picked it as an area to really concentrate on.

[Toun] You know, we all know there's no cure.

[Toun] The only way I can myself and help you and how you can help the next woman,

or the next person is to educate them.

[Toun] Let them know about it--

Emeka, how can you not tell me this is a breast cancer association meeting.

What are we doing here?

Listen, you better calm down right now. I was just trying to help.

This is the only thing I could think of.

[in Yoruba] What rubbish is this person saying.

[Eme] We needed to see her, why does it matter where it is?

She's talking about her grandmother's breast cancer.

So is this the right time for me--

She is vulnerable. Just take advantage of the situation and make her feel better.

-That's a genius idea. -[Eme] Just figure it out.

You people are - you people are stressing me.

[clears throat]

Quam, ah-ah I thought that was you.

It was me, good to see you.

Twice in one week. When did you become a breast cancer advocate?

You know, actually, I've been feeling pains--

So!

We are all affected by breast cancer in some way

or the other. My own mother died of breast cancer.

-[Quam] Wow. -Quam is just here for moral support.

Moral support, yeah.

Aw, that's nice of you Quam. I never would've figured it out.

Um, are you staying for the next session?

Of course, of course. We've already registered.

-Awesome. -Up breast cancer!

Alright.

-[Eme] Did you say you had breast cancer? -Up breast cancer?

She doesn't know the mantra.

[exasperated sigh]

[woman] Now we're going to learn how to examine ourselves.

So I'll be touching your breast.

So you go this way,

this way, this way.

And then this way.

I hope we all got it.

[woman] So,

we'll now learn how

to examine each other.

[woman] Okay? I hope we all got it? Okay.

[woman] Hold on, hold on here. Don't start yet.

Why? Come on.

What happened?

[woman whispering]

Get your hands off me.

They said we should examine.

Don't try that shit with me.

Was this not your plan? Are you not the one who said we should come here?

Settle down.

Ah.

Hold on, I'm feeling something.

Eh?

-Nah, I'm done. -What...

Have you found her?

Nah, I think she's gone.

-Eme. -Yes? Yes Ozzy?

You decided that the best strategy was for...

for Mr. Omole to resume a friendship

with Toun Odumosu?

No, it was... it was, uh, Emeka's idea.

I... I didn't... I... Emeka?

Yeah, it was my idea because,

it would've been the easiest way to get him access to the laptop eventually.

You should've accounted for her recent engagement.

At this stage, it's unlikely

that she would rekindle a relationship with an old flame.

Of course of course you-- You're completely right. I should've...

I should've anticipated that. I...I--

You should've gone to the backup plan.

What are you talking about? What backup plan?

[tense music]

[jazz music plays]

Hello hello, small chops, small chops, please.

-Okay. -Small chops, please.

She's here.

Are you ready?

[deep sigh]

Yo, don't fuck this up.

[Eme] Alright guys, here goes.

[clears throat]

[Eme exhales]

Thank you thank you.

-We are grateful. Leave. -Hurry up. I've called you three times.

-Hey! Help me! -[Emeka] Somebody help!

-Eh! -[Emeka] Help!

[Emeka] Help! Help!

[Emeka] Call 911 or whatever you guys call here.

[Quam] She's convulsing! Help me, please. Somebody get a spoon, please.

-[Emeka] Somebody help! -[Quam] Get a spoon!

[Toun]You guys should wait! Everybody move back. She doesn't need a spoon.

Oh my gosh, you just need to make-- Help me lift her up.

[Toun] Lift her up. You need to make her comfortable.

-[Eme moans] -Sorry. Sorry.

No, hold on, hold on. You just need to make her comfortable.

-[heaving] -Sorry, sorry.

-[Quam] Oh God. My Jesus. -[Emeka] You okay?

[Quam] Is she alive?

-[Toun] Sorry. -[heaving]

-[Quam] Would she make it? -Are... are you okay?

-Um. -What happened?

You... you had a seizure, but you're... you're okay now.

[groaning]

Thank you so much.

[Toun] Three times in one week.

-No! -If I didn't know better, I'd say you're

-stalking me. -[laughs]

That's not it at all. I'm not even supposed to be here.

-Hmm. -I'm just...

[cheerful laughter]

Calm down. Breathe, I'm joking.

I know you're not stalking me. Um, how's your friend?

Oh, she's okay, she's okay. My other friend is taking care of her.

-She's okay. -That's good, I'm glad.

I'm glad.

Alright then, have fun. I'll see you around.

-Toun, wait wait. -Yes?

Can we talk?

Quam, what did you do?

[loud sigh]

Not here. They're watching me, they're watching me. Come let's go.

Why?

[Quam] Follow me.

What?

Quam.

[Toun] Quam wait now.

Who?

They may... they may be watching us.

Who?

Who?

[clicks tongue]

[Toun] Wait you mean your friends?

[Toun] The lady, the one whose mom had cancer?

She... Actually, she's not my friend.

I'm the one that gave her the drugs that caused the seizure.

What do you mean you gave her the drug that--

You know what?

I don't...I don't care.

I'm not going to be roped into your dramas. I don't have the bandwidth for it.

I don't care.

I'm supposed to help them steal five billion naira from you.

What?

What do you mean you're supposed--

What do you mean you're supposed to help to them steal five billion from me?

[quietly] Stop shouting.

Quam!

I can explain everything, Toun.

[in Yoruba] Am I cursed?

-[tense chords] -[in Yoruba] Oh God.

[Toun] Quam what the hell is going on?

Take it!

Be discreet.

My number is there. Toun, you'll contact me and you'll just...

Just say you want to talk to Q. That's the passcode.

[Quam in Yoruba] Do you understand?

[in Yoruba] Call me.

[distressed sigh]

[Toun] After everything that I've done for you Quam, you decided to steal from me?

But Toun I told you what was happening.

Only because you couldn't figure out how to get it done.

That's not it at all. Toun it wasn't my plan. I was targeted.

In fact, they almost cleared my account. [in Yoruba] They took 500 million

-from-- -You have a house.

You have a car. You didn't sell those.

Quam you didn't try to rebuild, you decided to steal from me.

I'm the only person in your entire life that has given you a chance.

[in Yoruba] Toun, I really appreciate your help.

And I'm so grateful for your assistance in my life. But,

this is a planned heist.

Toun, this is a planned heist.

I was minding my business when they came into my life.

[in Yoruba] I was doing the Lord's work.

They came into my life through demonic possession.

They were trying to steal from Audere right?

Toun doesn't work there, so what was the plan?

She's still chairman of the board and has access to the system.

The flash drive is meant to give them access to that information.

[Quam] So that...

So they can blackmail... blackmail you. I'm... I'm sorry.

You're always sorry.

Quam, you are always sorry, but nothing ever changes.

I didn't plan this. I was minding my business.

These people interrupted my life.

You should not have put yourself in a position for this to happen.

Quite alright. [in Yoruba] You're right.

But I'm already in trouble and I need your help.

Toun please you need to help me, they want to lock me up for terrorism.

You know I'm not a criminal.

[in Yoruba] Toun, I can't become a criminal. They want to destroy me life.

They want to ruin my destiny.

Toun if you don't help me, I'm going to be doomed

for life. [in Yoruba] I really need your help, please.

Even if I was to help you, what am I supposed to do?

I really appreciate that question.

Listen, I already planned everything out. This is how it's going to go,

you just have to go with the plan.

You pretend like we've become friends,

and stop them before they can do anything.

[in Yoruba] You'll double-cross them, you have a larger influence.

You'll make a few calls,

[in Yoruba] to some of your contacts. You have a lot of contacts.

Double cross them and stop them. [in Yoruba] They'll be surprised.

Toun you can do this.

[in Yoruba] Please.

Fine. I can do that.

Thank you so much. Thank you Toun, I'm so grateful to you.

I'm really grate-- in fact,

I thought you would say no.

Oh trust me, I was going to say no.

But it's very clear these people targeted you just to get to me.

So the least I can do is try to stop them.

[in Yoruba] You're right. They targeted me.

It's a planned heist. It's a planned heist. I really appreciate you Toun.

Thank you for your support sir. I really appreciate it.

[somber music]

[phone ringing]

[ringing]

[deep sigh]

Hello?

[Toun] Get to my house now.

Ah, Toun,

It's is 3:00 am. in the morning.

[Toun]Get to my house now.

I get that, I get that. But this is urgent. you need to get back to me today.

Eh, give me an update, what's going on. I'll call you back.

The systems are still down we need more hands. There are people at the gate.

[Toun] For the love of Christ.

[Toun] How! how! how!

What's up?

Quam, what the hell did you do?!

-I don't under-- -No. What did you do?

I... I didn't do any... what do you... I don't understand.

What did you do, all my systems went blank at 2:00 am. this morning.

-What did you do? -Oh

God! Oh God oh God oh God.

[in Yoruba] They're on to us Toun. I have no idea what--

[phone rings]

[tense music]

-Hello? -[Ozzy] Give the phone to Toun.

Ah-ah. Toun.

-Toun. -What?!

[tense music]

[Ozzy] Come downstairs.

[suspenseful music]

Is this her? Is this her!

She's the... she's the one.

You really have some nerve showing up here.

[tense music]

I figured you'd want to do this sooner rather than later.

Do we have a deal? Five billion naira.

What is my guarantee that I'll get my systems back?

Because all I care about is the money.

Do you really think you're going to get away with this?

Yes, I am.

Give Quam an untraceable bitcoin wallet.

I would make it my mission to make sure that you don't.

[phone rings]

[man] We figured it out, it was the picture you sent us.

[man] It was a trojan.

Ah!

-I'm not... I'm not-- -You did this to me Quam.

Toun I'm not-- I didn't do anything.

The picture you sent to me is how they got in my systems.

Picture?

Send the picture to Toun,

and tell her it's to help with the investigation.

[Toun] You keep messing things up for me Quam.

Every single time. And for some reason I keep making excuses for you.

I don't understand it. Lord knows that I've tried I don't know why.

I swear to God, I didn't even know.

And that right there is the problem.

You... you never know.

You never know. You're too stupid to know! Look…

I'm done with you Quam.

I don't wanna have anything to do with you again.

I don't want to see you after today Quam.

When the money is ready, I will call you.

If I see you after that, I promise you,

-I will have you arrested. -[in Yoruba] Ah, Toun let's not do...

Toun, please be patient.

Think about our history.

What about our love?

[somber music]

Your boss already got what she wants. Please leave my house.

Didn't you ever find it strange, that the most

fearsome yahoo gang

was called the

-[suspenseful chords] -Borrow Borrow boys.

I mean what kind of stupid name is that?

I know right. But come to think about it, you came up with such a ridiculous name.

Excuse you,

It was way better than your idea

of calling us king Emeka and his queen.

Babe, think about it. I'm a king, you're my queen, not the Borrow Borrow boys.

Borrow Borrow boys sounds like a bunch of little boys okay?

[Eme] No one would ever suspect you or me.

[Emeka] You see the thing now is,

-we don't borrow, we take. Yeah. -Whoo! That is so true.

[Eme playfully] You are so sexy.

-[Eme making sexy noises] -[Quam] Eh!

[Quam] Eh.

What do you mean she came up with it?

You heard what I said.

What happened to you're voice? Where's your accent?

Oh, I'm sorry man, my bad.

[with deep American accent] You'd prefer if I speak like this?

-[high-pitched Nigerian accent] Oh no! -[aroused] Whoo.

But you know what that voice does to me. Do it again.

-[Emeka] Oh no. -[Eme] Say it again.

-[accented voice] Oh no. -Again, say it again.

-[accented voice] Oh no. -[Qwam] Hello.

Hey hey hey. Emeka,

don't tell me you've been working for Ozzy all this while?

[laughs]

Oh, Qwame.

Quame Qwame Qwame.

We don't work for Ozzy.

She works for us.

[tense music]

How is that even possible?

[snickers]

Mwah.

How is that even possible?

[chuckles]

[Eme] We were teenagers,

pulling scams at computer village.

And boy were we slick.

[nostalgic music]

[Emeka] We made so much money so fast.

[Eme] But were we stupid? Yup.

Because we almost got caught.

[Emeka] So we decided to move to the US.

[Eme] We hacked the green card lottery.

[Emeka] We decided to be more careful.

[nostalgic music]

[Eme] And we found a Nigerian university student to front for us.

-My...my mother. -Shush.

Mm, don't. Look at me.

We'll fix it.

[nostalgic music]

And the rest as they say is history.

Why are you telling me all this?

Because Qwame,

you work for us now.

I don't work for anybody.

[Emeka and Eme laugh]

Wow, you really are dumb.

So stupid.

Listen, I don't care. I'll go to prison. I'll do the time.

Three years, five years, ten years. I don't care.

I'll get a barrister that would defend me. How do you know I'll end up in prison?

I don't care. Just leave me alone! Ah-ah.

Listen Quame,

If you don't join us,

we will kill you.

And please don't choose death.

I was just starting to like you.

I think that you can be very useful.

Ah.

I think you think this is a game.

Oh yes, it is. As a matter of fact, this is how we like to play. Okay?

Emeka you're stepping on my toes. You're stepping on my toes.

You think this is a joke? Because I'm calm right?

[in Yoruba] Don't you know I'm a ghetto soldier! If I showcase--

Calm down, young man.

But forget what Ozzy told you,

I used to work with the US special forces.

Oh, please okay. You joined to become a hacker. A hacker!

But you see, you forget baby that I...

-I was also trained to kill. -Mm.

-You are so right. -Yeah.

-[Eme] You are so right. Yes, you are. -[Emeka] You know I'm dangerous.

I am right?

Sit.

Please, as I am, I don't own anything again. Please I...

[Eme] Listen,

think about it.

You have until you return from Audere with the bitcoin.

-Baby? I'm hungry. -Hm? Oh.

What do you want to eat baby?

I don't know, what is there?

I don't know. What do you have in this house?

Ah-ah.

[Quam in Yoruba] Toun please don't be angry. I'm so sorry.

I don't need another apology.

[Quam] I said I need to move.

Just book me any flight to a foreign country. Preferably in Europe.

Yes! [in Yoruba] You can book maybe

Chile or Mauritius somewhere, somewhere--

It's not... it's not in Europe?

Is that the point?

I'm telling you I need to move. Book me a flight to a foreign country.

[door slams]

[action paced music]

[clicks tongue]

[banging on door]

[banging]

Who's that?

[ominous chords]

[Qwam] You.

[sarcasm] Mm-mm, it's you're uncle.

[Quam in Pidigin] What are you doing here?

[in Pidgin] What do you think?

Are you not the building manager?

Who do you think owns that building?

How did you find me here?

[Dada] I don't know, I don't know.

But the truth is they need you. You need to go and report at the office.

[in Pidgin] Are they mad?

[in Pidgin] They're not mad they're crazy.

You should've thought of that when you were running off. Waking me up at 3:00 am.

Ah-ah I have my own problems, don't add your own.

[Dada] What kind of nonsense is this?

What do they have on you?

What?

What do they have on you?

It's the same thing they have on you.

How do you know what they have on me?

I... I don't know, but I think it's what they have on me.

[Quam] Excuse me ma, I can explain myself.

It's not what it looks like. It was a mistake.

-Holy Mary mother of Jesus. -Oh Quam.

It's just a little boo-boo.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry ma. Sorry, ma.

Ah! Please please ma. Please let me explain.

[Quam] Just give me one chance. Please, one last chance.

-[shot fired] -[Quam screams]

[Quam] Ow!

Are you done? 'Cause I missed.

[Emeka] Baby, do you want to ruin my table?

Um, excuse you. I would be so lucky.

[Eme] I hate this table, it is ugly as hell.

I wanted the white table that goes with the decor.

Baby, this is expensive.

It's expensively ugly. I should shoot you for this table.

-[laughs] -This table deserves a bullet.

-[playfully] I should shoot you. -No, you don't want to do that.

-You deserve a bullet for it. -[Emeka laughing]

Focus on the hand! Focus...

[Quam] Focus on the hand. Please I don't like this position.

Uh oh. Oh, God.

Please Ms. I didn't mean it.

I didn't mean it. Please I beg you in the name of the Almighty.

Permit me to explain myself. It's not... it's not--

-[shot fired] -Ah!

[gleeful scream] I got him.

Nice shot.

Thank you.

[gut wrenching sobs]

Quame

What's good?

[moans]

[suspenseful music]

[tense music]

Clean this up.

You. You're so fiesty.

I love it.

Baby, I'm bored now. Can we go?

Ugh.

[tense music]

[sniffs]

[Quam sobs]

-[exhales] -[sad music]

["Ragabomi" by Show Dem Camp playing]

Q!

Yo, you good?

[Rotimi] Yay! Baby look at you.

[Rotimi] Maybe tomorrow night yeah?

-My guy! Ay! -Hey hey.

Hey, what the hell happened to your hand?

Hey bro, just a small accident, don't worry.

I hope it involved a beautiful woman.

Hey, hey. Guy, two shots.

Why so serious, you're killing my vibe. Come on.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry if I cannot smile but they just stole 500 million from me.

I know I know ah.

But you know, money comes, money goes. You can't get hung up on these things.

Bartender, two shots.

It's easy for you to say, you're a billionaire with dollars.

Well, yeah. I am.

-Rotimi, you can't understand my plight. -Ah, wait. Listen.

You know our new oil fuel just came online.

And we're producing like five...

Ah.

Um, as I was saying our oil fuel came online.

What if,

I give you an oil lifting contract for like five percent margin.

Six months and you'll make 500 million back. Easy.

No. You don't have to do that.

-Of course, I do. You're my guy. -Are you sure?

Come tomorrow. Stop by the office.

-[Rotimi] It's not a big deal. -I hope it's not the alcohol talking.

[Rotimi] Quame, are you trying to insult me? What do you mean?

My guy.

[drunk slurs]

Let's party! Turn up turn up. Quame turn up.

Alright drinks on me!

[crowd hailing]

-[crowd] Sweet boy Q! -Come on.

-[crowd] Sweet boy Q! -Let's go!

-[crowd] Sweet boy Q! -Ay!

[crowd] Sweet boy Q! Sweet boy Q!

["Squander" by Falz playing]

Rotimi Davies is the new target.

What? Are you...

I would do no such thing.

You act like you have a choice.

Rotimi? Why are you targeting Rotimi, why?

Answer me, why Rotimi?

Why not?

I mean think about it.

He's your friend. And he owns an oil block.

It only makes sense. Duh.

[tense music]

[in Yoruba] Hey! Thief thief! Help me!

[Quam] You would regret your actions. I promise you.

[engine starts]

[Quam] Please. Please spare my life.

Ahh!

[Hadiza] Quam Quam, who are Eme and Emeka?

Are they the leaders of the triple B?

Sincerely speaking, I... I don't have anything to say again.

Just take me to prison.

Quam, if you don't come clean I can't protect you.

You'll protect me?

It would take you another two to three years to prepare my protection?

I will protect you.

Just take me to prison.

Just... just take me.

Fine.

Have it your way, let's see how this plays out.

Uncuff him.

[Quam yells]

[cuff clatters]

You can go.

[ominous music]

[Quam] Please, please. I'm born-again.

Please. I'm sorry.

[Eme] There's no need to be sorry.

You are a terrorist mastermind that defrauded Audere,

with a lady called Ozzy.

[Eme] We're just pleased Qwame, that you weren't stupid enough to testify.

[Eme] Because then, you'll be dead.

Yeah, lucky me.

[Eme] Quite.

However, I'm extremely disappointed in Audere.

[Eme] Call your little girlfriend and let her know,

that she's really pissed us the hell off.

And if she's a good little girl, maybe we'll give her her systems back.

For... I don't know, baby, how much do you want? Ten billion?

Twenty billion?

Are you not just giving Hadiza more ammunition to arrest you?

No-no, don't get it mixed up.

She will be so busy

trying to explain to the anti-corruption agency

about the huge sum of money, they found in her account.

[Eme] 250.

Two-fifty baby?

Was that not too much?

I figured 250 worked better.

Make sense.

Two of you are the

worst human beings I've ever met in my life.

Ah,

I don't know why I take that as a compliment.

-Thank you very much. I appreciate that. -It is. Seriously, we do.

We love it.

You are destroying Audere, you're framing a government official.

-[sniffs] -[Quam] All because of money.

[Eme] Well, I Mean...

It's a lot of money.

-[Eme] Hmm. -[ominous music]

[Eme] Yeah.

[Eme] So much. [clicks tongue]

Wait wait. Wait a minute.

Why... Why are we talking like this?

[groaning]

Fuck!

Always resist the urge to [in Yoruba] explain.

[dramatic intro music]

[Hadiza laughs]

Oh, thank you for the 250 million.

It'll come in very handy.

[sniffs]

You ungrateful bitch.

We gave you everything.

It wasn't enough.

[chuckles] Just say you want me.

Fuck you!

[Emeka laughing]

Well done Quame.

Congratulations Mr. Omole.

I'm impressed you pulled this off.

[Quam] After that crazy bitch shot me,

I thought that was the end of my life.

[Ozzy] Do not look at it until you get home.

[Quam] Initially, I didn't want to go, but I thought to myself,

what is the worst that can happen.

What is all this?

We want you to help us get free of Eme and Emeka.

[Quam] I shared the idea with Hadiza.

If you want me to do this,

I need fresh incriminating evidence on Emeka and Eme.

I need to catch them in the act of committing a new crime. Do you understand?

[Quam] Hadiza upped the stakes and

and said I had to involve Toun in everything.

After everything I put her through.

Eventually, I explained everything to her.

Finally, it was time.

In fact, I faked my own arrest.

The way we carried it out, was like a James Bond movie. 007.

Ahh!

[Hadiza] Quam Quam,

[Hadiza] You lied to me.

[Quam] We even had a fake conversation.

Little did they know, it was all an act.

They implicated themselves. And that is why you don't mess with Sweet Boy Q.

[Hadiza] You're very good at this Quam.

What can I say, thank you, don't mention it.

Do you want a job?

Um, I don't know if you can afford me.

[laughs]

Uh, and you.

[Hadiza] I think I've seen enough of you for one day.

You should leave, before I change my mind and arrest you.

What's that for?

For saving me.

Ah-ah.

[snickers]

Are you sure you don't want a job? you'll meet very interesting women like Ozzy.

Thanks, but no thanks.

Just let me know when I can get my 500 million.

Quam.

You're the source on record, for the arrest of the ringleaders of the BBB.

Go check out the Global Pol website. There's a reward there.

Global Pol.

Eh. Quame.

Oh! Oh oh oh.

Oh Quame you're set for life.

Quame US dollar, US dollar. Quame.

Ah! ah-ah.

I have to walk with more style.

I'm a child of God.

[indistinct adulation]

Hello, Hadiza, come and collect your microphone.

[music finishes]

I hope you know this suit can pay your salary for two years.

Well well well.

Borrow Borrow... Sorry,

the ex-Borrow Borrow boy and girl.

Look, please spare us the chit chat okay?

We'll take the deal.

-[soft music] -[typewriter clacking]

Hold on. Eme and Emeka return?

Quam's money too, baby. Fuck shit. [in Yoruba] Quame's in charge.

[crowd cheering]

["Squander" by Falz playing]
